It's amp week on the Great Brooklyn Build Off...
Balls G-50. This is my Marshall 2204 style amp. I make this in either the stock 2204 circuit or with my personal mods that I like and this is the latter. The stock 2204, to my ears, is a bit bright especially if you arent playing humbuckers. My circuit mods tame that down a bit. I also find the "Low" jack on a standard 2204 to be lame as hell, so this reconfigures things to be more like a standard low jack seen on Fender, Hiwatt, other Marshall, etc. This particular instance adds in an effects loop as well as a post-PI Master Volume. Mix and match Masters!

HOT PEREZ. HP-1 circuit clone. The HP-1of course does not seem to have one stock design in terms of part values as slight changes were made over its small lifecycle. Much internet sleuthing on behalf of many people has come up with what are the various HP-1 variables, and this one is the schematic version purported to be closest to Mr Albini's HP-1. Its a little more smooth and less wild than some of the other variants. These are using germanium diodes spec matched to the OG 1N695 diodes in the original, an AC125 germanium transistor, and a 2N3565 silicon transistor.
